NETGEAR Announces Strategic Collaboration With Samsung Electronics' System LSI Business To Help Create Seamless Interoperability And Roaming Between Netgear Business WiFi 7 Access Points And Samsung's WiFi 7 Client Chipset Solution

NETGEAR®, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTGR), the leader in advanced networking technologies for homes, businesses, and service providers around the world, today announced a strategic collaboration with Samsung Electronics' System LSI Business to help create seamless interoperability and roaming between NETGEAR Business WiFi 7 access points and Samsung's WiFi 7 client chipset solution.

In environments with multiple mobile devices all needing to get online at any time, one of the biggest issues to solve is WiFi roaming. Stationary devices that connect to one access point all the time don't usually have a problem getting online, but users with cell phones, moving from one floor to another in an office building or from building to building on a campus may experience some lag in connectivity as their phones disconnect from one access point and try to connect to the next. The problem is amplified in an auditorium, for example, where hundreds of users converge in one place and try to connect to the same access point all at once. This pain point, identified by NETGEAR and Samsung as a top priority, is bringing the two companies together to work on a solution.
